Ricoh Caplio R5 Images

More Ricoh Australia reviews , RRP: AU$599.00

The good:

  • 7.1x optical wide angle zoom
  • Auto resize zoom improves picture quality of close-ups
  • Choice of colours: red, silver or black
  • Included carry case and leather belt pouch

The bad:

  • Prone to freezing
  • Image review mode sometimes doesn't work

The bottomline:

Strong zoom features including the new auto resize zoom should interest those who take plenty of shots at distance. Be wary though of the device's occassional freeze.
